Default Looks nice, however, can you suggest

a way to mask the cruddy look of the rusty plate on the front brake calipers?

Default Sure a nice set of Stoptech or Alcon calipers . G2 or Duplicolor brake paint will work also

Then there is also the old Kleen Wheel disc but I don't know if they make a 20".

i've done the paint job with G2 in black, I have a brillant black a8l and the paint does it justice.

Default Per prior posts I'm looking out for this on 2008's

That rusted part is the side of the caliper anti rattle and pad retainer clip. Same on the W12 too. If you look at any D3 S8 though, they use a part that is finished and also covers more of the somewhat basic looking casting. But, it has an S8 logo---looks nice, but doesn't fit w/ other motors appropriately. I'm hoping maybe w/ the 2008's they cleaned up this substandard finish for all the D3 models.
